Menzies Distribution is proud to support National Apprenticeship Week with the launch of an important campaign demonstrating the diverse opportunities for all ages and abilities to train and progress in logistics, both within our own company and across the wider industry.
Menzies’ Learning in Logistics campaign is a critical training initiative that stands alongside our mission for continuous improvement, best in class service & commitment to shaping the future of sustainable supply chains.
Whether you are a school leaver preparing to take the first steps in your career, or an experienced individual looking for a change in direction or a chance to upskill, the logistics industry has opportunities to offer everyone.
During the course of the year, Menzies will illustrate the huge variety of apprenticeships and qualifications undertaken by staff members, discussing their different journeys to arrive in the world of logistics and providing insight into choices for young people, career development for longer-serving staff, flexibility and the motivations for choosing these routes.
During 2022, our Company was widely recognised by industry bodies, major media outlets and standards organisations for all key elements of its work, including service excellence, safety, storage and distribution standards, and as Covid Hero of the Year.
We look forward to further success in 2023 as Menzies continues to strive to set benchmarks in training for younger people and career development in all areas of its workforce.
